I like the fit & feel of the MiniMag...but their output with the stock bulb IS pathetic, at best. If you want to keep it incandescent, buy some Brinkmann Nexstar bulbs. They'll just about double the output of the stock Mag bulb. But like chamenos suggested, try an LED or luxeon retrofit in your MiniMag. There's a LOT of good options to be found. I have 2 MM's with Inretech adapters, and another one with one of Lambda's Ill Pills. If you use your MM for more throw, then you'll probably want to go with a luxeon over the NewBeam...it's a NICE flood, but not much throw. Keep the MM...they're good quality devices, but you can dramatically improve it's output quality with other "bulb" options! Also, do a search for Badboy and MadMax. Their output is very impressive...FYI
